The RIPE NCC received the IPv6 address range 2A01:0000::/16 from the IANA in December 2005.

!Finally! IANA is passing /16's directly to the RIR's! That is a good thing to see happening. Congrats (Or did somebody request a /17 ? :)

2A01:0000::/23 was allocated to the RIPE NCC in July 2005. This latest range includes that previous allocation.

You may wish to adjust any filters you have in place accordingly.

See http://www.space.net/~gert/RIPE/ipv6-filters.html I expect Gert to update those later today, give him a few moments ;) Greets, Jeroen
